Anti-Black racism in the Arab world stems from a long history of racial hierarchies established during the trans-Saharan, Red Sea, and Indian Ocean slave trades, which have left lasting legacies in social attitudes and power structures. Sub-Saharan Africans have been historically enslaved, marginalised, and stereotyped, particularly the Zanj and other East African groups. In modern times, discrimination persists in the form of social exclusion, derogatory language, unequal access to jobs and education, and media portrayals that reinforce negative stereotypes.
